To listen to Sara Jane Moore, everybody wanted to kill President Gerald Ford.

She appeared yesterday on CNN to mark the 40th anniversary of her failed assassination attempt on the president in San Francisco in 1975.

“What drove to you to want to try to assassinate President Ford?” host Alisyn Camerota asked Moore.

“Everybody was talking about it,” Moore claims. “I don’t know about the rest of the country but in San Francisco, people were saying this all the time. Number 1, we elect our presidents we don’t appoint them. And Gerald Ford was appointed — and he was appointed by a crook, if you will pardon the expression.”

She theorizes she would be better suited to kill the president because she was a no-name and relatively insignificant to a cause of “revolution.”

“It wasn’t a unique feeling. It was partly that there were other people who had talked about it who I thought were much more important to what we were thinking of as a revolution and we really truly thought there was going to be one.

“And I thought somebody like me who was a nobody — it would be better coming from somebody like me — and not destroying these people who I felt were leaders and if they did this it would destroy their leadership.”

After serving 32 years in prison, Moore was released from prison in 2007, has been on parole for 7 years.

She insists she was “always a pretty good citizen” and pushed back on Camerota’s notion that she “turned over a new leaf.”

Moore claims she was supposed to be released from parole after five years, but that still hasn’t happened.

“They’re supposed to release you unless they feel you’re going to commit another offense. And I don’t know what other offense I would commit — jaywalking, perhaps?” she said sarcastically.
